Waste of time and money! - I would not recommend this tour. Our guide knew zero about wine tasting and basically, we spent the day touring a castle, driving around in his car and visited one winery for a tasting that did not occur until 5 PM. The person was not fully prepared for the tasting and asked us which wines we wanted to taste, and we had to ask her to explain them to us. It was obvious to us that this tour was not what it was represented as, or our tour guide was thrown in at the last minute and didn't want to so the tour. I received a partial refund after having to prove to the customer representative that I did not get what the tour description stated. I have purchased multiple through this site, but never have I been so disappointed as I was with this one.
